Demonstrative pronouns worksheet: Practice using "this," "these," "that," and "those" with visual examples.

Let's solve this worksheet step by step. The goal is to choose the correct demonstrative pronoun — either "this," "these," "that," or "those" — based on the picture and the context.

Rules for Demonstrative Pronouns:

- This / That → used for singular nouns.
- This = close to the speaker
- That = farther from the speaker
- These / Those → used for plural nouns.
- These = close to the speaker
- Those = farther from the speaker

Now, let’s go through each sentence with the image clues:

✔ All sentences use "this" or "these" because the hand is pointing close to the speaker (no dotted lines indicating distance), so we use "this/these".

> 💡 Note: If the hand were pointing with dots (like in some examples where it shows distance), we’d use "that/those." But here, all are close, so only this/these apply.
